Y X X K BC A: and K Xy Joint Variation A KBC and K

This document contains a mathematics test for grade 9 students. It has 3 sections - writing mathematical equations from word problems, solving equations of variation, and a problem solving question. The first section lists 20 word problems that can be represented by different types of variation equations like direct, inverse, and joint variation. The second section asks students to solve 2 equations of inverse variation and 3 equations of joint variation. The third section asks students to use the concept of direct variation to determine the number of letters a mailman can sort in 18 hours given information about letters sorted in 12 hours.
